Fountain Square was packed last night
Last night the brand new Fountain Square celebrated it's first Macy's Christmas celebration.
It was surprisingly crowded. Too crowded even. There was no room to skate, wanna-be carriage riders were forced to jockey for position in hopes they would be the lucky winners in the happy-cab sweepstakes, and even the now highly-priced garage was filled to capacity.
The fireworks show was alright and the explosions made strange echoes since they were trapped between high buildings instead of being in open fields. Not to mention how excited all the small children were to see "Santa" rappel down a skyscraper.
All in all, it was good to see people downtown having fun with their families.
